• Long-short capital is an investment strategy aimed at opening a long position on undervalued stocks while selling short stocks at inflated prices.

  • Long-short seeks to increase traditional long-only investing by taking advantage of profit opportunities in securities identified as both undervalued and overvalued.
  • Long-short assets are commonly used by hedge funds that often use a relative long position - for example, a 130/30 strategy where the long exposure is 130% of the AUM and 30% is the short exposure.
